Some restaurants diminish with time. This onevis like fine wine. Even better wirh time

I was excited to try this place because the food looks delicious. The service was slow, even though it's a small place and it wasn't crowded. I ordered a pork chop. Which I didn't enjoy much, it was too salty for my taste. At first I thought it was ham. quite honestly, I don't know what type of pork chop that was . Their mash were delicious though. We ordered appetizers, and didn't receive them until after we were half way done with our entree. And I had to remind the waitress for the appetizer. I also ordered Maduros. That never came lol. Oh well. read more

PEOPLE COME HERE. This is a brand new restaurant in the neighborhood and you know and I know we are desperately in need of this place surviving. It's across from the new development with the Petco and that's a good and bad thing, because there are going to be four new restaurants opening across the street -- but this one has its own thing going on. This place is multipurpose -- and that's important -- it's not JUST a sub shop or a wing place or a Tex-mex lunch or a hamburger joint. You can get a proper breakfast here (though they should expand the menu a little), and get this -- they have ESPRESSO. You can go in and pretend this restaurant is actually a coffee shop and brunch place. It works, trust me. This could be the hip brunch place in Kingsbridge. Make this the ONLY place to see and be seen. So, onto the food. I've come here three times in the last week and it's very good. The French Fries, both sweet potato and plain, are awesome, and YES they look like McDonald's fries (read review below) and I can see if they were in a delivery order how a person might think that. However, I watched the guy cook them and they're legit -- crispy, thin, just right. I've had several things and they were all very good. A little salty for some things -- but I haven't even gotten to the more Latin specialties yet. It has a great diverse menu -- they just need to make sure everything on it is available at all times. That's my one and only complaint. They also have juices and desserts and really great salads. In the evening, this could be a nicer place to go. Make it happen, Kingsbridge! read more

Unfortunately leche y miele seems to be closed to inside dining,the owner said they might reopen inadequate year,they seem to be catering,&filling orders that are delivered only.....boo hoo,we were so looking forward to tasting their highly recommended cuisine read more

It's rare and nice to leave a restaurant feeling you not only had a good meal but the staff delivered beyond normal expectations. The entire experience was positive from the moment we sat down. Don't let the outside of location be deceiving, this is a gen!!! once you are inside you are in a small but cozy ambient. The place is super clean. Good attentive service without feeling annoying in any way. The food quality was very good and the coffee is fresh and Delish, Overall, no complaints and we would go back again. read more

Came here for brunch once. Loved it. Decided to come for dinner... Big mistake. Waited an hour and 15 min for our dinner. Ribs and fried yuca, pulled pork and Mac and cheese. The ribs were cold when they came out. The Mac and cheese is bland. They're both super sweet. The waiter was a nice guy, but didn't come back to fill the water once. There's literally a bunch of guys talking at the counter whole one person works. It's a shame. The waiter didn't charge us for our appetizer because of the wait. Again, nice guy, but it doesn't help how crappy that dinner was. read more

Gave this place another chance and honestly it may be my last. Food took about two hours to be delivered. First they made the order wrong when in the notes I clearly wrote it was for a vegetarian. Then they called saying they had to remake it when they were already late. Was told it would be out in the next ten minutes. Lies. It came 30 mins later. When we called for the update the guy on the phone had an attitude and said it's free so it's fine. So it's fine that my food is late because of your terrible service and made incorrectly? Customer service is not their thing. Caroline the manager offered a free meal for next time but honestly idk. read more

Great food and food service. They have 2-3 private parking. We had tirones and chicken.

What can I say, I'm impressed! The food here is delicious. The atmosphere is very cozy, you can easily forget that you are at a restaurant. The owner is extremely friendly and attentive. I ordered the stewed chicken, rice and red beans with a side of maduros, the flavors were just right. There is no competition with Chipotle, Buffalo Wild Wings or Smash Burger located across the street, this restaurant is in a league of its own. Give this restaurant a chance, you won't be disappointed! read more

I would consider myself to be a mangú connoisseur, having spent significant time in New York City's Dominican restaurants and in my own Dominican Republic. I showed up on a weekday with a mangú itch but no intention of fulfilling it; every other place I've asked for mangú after noontime, and especially on a weekday, tells me that it's "too late" or they can reheat some... we ALL know what the latter means, yuck. So I asked for mangú on whim and they were more than accommodating, making me fresh mangú on the spot which was DELICIOUS! Best I've had, next to Abuelita's! Good thing she doesn't use Yelp BTW and won't see this message :-)! Anyway, the food was great, no grease, the place and staff lovely, and clean. This is a new category of Nuevo Latino Kitchen: bueno, bonito, y barato! read more

Service was INSANELY SLOW. Came in on a Sunday afternoon around 3pm(not a busy time at all) to grab something quick and sweet after seeing the good ratings, but were super disappointed. Water was served after we have been sitting for 30 mins. We ordered a crepes, a side of Mac n cheese and a smoothie - took over 30 mins???? Food was sub-par too.. Mac n cheese - who said it was good? Have you had any serious Mac and Cheese? The cheese was not even fully melted and and hence not smooth at all (look at the picture and you can imagine the weird texture). The crepe tasted good but it was served COLD. I meant I understand that fruits and whipped cream might be cold but I had never had a freshly made crepes that was cold from inside out. Very disappointed. The room was very cold too so we were having out coats on this whole time. read more

Might come back to try a second time. Service was pretty slow, but at the time I went our waitress was expecting. The Chef did come out and chatted it up with us for a few minutes. Looking forward to updating this review soon. read more

I have been back several times since I first dined here. Leche y Miel never fails to impress! On my most recent visit (Aug 2, 2016) I had the mangu (plantain purée) with Tres Golpes ("Three hits" meaning the typical Dominican breakfast of eggs, fried cheese, and fried salami). It was out of this world!!! A very large plate of delicious fresh food, plus a latte with a double shot for $9 plus tip. You can't beat it. I wish I lived closer and could dine here more often. read more

AMAZING. Customer service was excellent. Decor doesn't exist, ambiance is eh...but who cares, when you have great food. I didnt imajine it....My husband and mother in law loved it too. 4 appetizers we had: Yuca balls with cheese Honey chicken wings Entrees: Chicken salad Shrimp salad Churrassco with Yuca Fries Order their chimichurri sauce. Goes well with anything. They close early...9pm for Saturday night but meal great. We will return. read more

Super friendly service and the food was awesome. I had the butternut squash salad where the peppery arugula and creamy feta beautifully offset each other. On the side, we smacked on addictive fried chickepeas which were tasty with paprika. The best hung on the table tho was a frothy coffee dusted with cinnamon and nutmeg. read more

My favorite neighborhood family restaurant! Always feel at home here my husband and I love it! We literally eat here every other day even brunch!!! Lunch specials are always a steal and you can't beat it anywhere nearby! Depending on what you order be prepared to wait a little (because it is very fresh so it's the best) if you are rushing call in advance to place an order read more

Love this restaurant! It's right near our home. The food is always great! The employees and owners are like family and they all have amazing customer service! A total gem! read more

Been coming here since the week it opened. The quality has been consistent every time. So far I've tried the Pulled Pork w/ Mac & Cheese, Chili w/ Rice, Chicken w/ Vegetables, Body Builder Omelette, Ribs w/ Maduros, Honey Wings w/ Sweet Potato Fries, and the Tostones. From the desserts I've tried the snickers bar, which, by the way, is completely homemade, not from a candy wrapper, I don't know why they don't mention it on the menu! I've also tried the Panna Cotta, they were both very good! They have no problem substituting your side if you want to switch it up, and often time the chef has created custom orders or orders from scratch for us. I've gotten my coworkers to come try the food and they are all repeat customers at this point. There was one time they didn't have something and they made it up by offering another item or a dessert. The Chef and his Wife/co-owner are both hardworking and friendly people. He has come to our table many times for feedback, making sure things aren't too spicy, etc. You can tell he's got years of experience with cooking. She worked the first few week while pregnant, I don't know any way someone can be more dedicated. You really need to come in and eat there so you can meet them, you will definitely leave happy with the service and food. Also the prices are pretty decent considering how much food costs in this area read more

What a great family owned restaurant! Went there this morning for breakfast. I had the chicken and waffles. They were absolutely delicious! My husband had the garden omelette. It too was wonderful. Both the chef and his wife (owners) came out to greet us and make sure we were well taken care of. I simply cannot wait to try their lunch and dinner selections. This is a hidden gem in the Bronx that I wish much success! Oh and they deliver! read more

Leche Y Miel is such a cute spot to visit with comfort food that everyone will love. I definitely suggest getting the Grilled Churrasco con Tostones & the Mofonguitos. I loved the taste and modern twist on classic Latin dishes. Very affordable and quick service to top it all off . read more

We, a group of four diverse travellers famish and tired from our mission was in dire need of sustenance. After much calculation, the best course of action was this restaurant. We were astounded by the customer service but also the exquisite deliciousness of our meals. Home. It's the only word the defined our experience here, from the hospitality to our main dish to our cinnamon delighted coffee to our tres leches dessert. We felt Home in every bite. Our server reminded us of a close relative making sure we were fed. Wonderful. We must leave, back on our journey...but we will return home soon. read more

I knew this place was special when I looked closely at the cookbooks stacked three feet high on the counter. These fine folks are serious about all that surrounds food and nourishes the soul. Husband had a western omelet and I had a bacon, egg and mozzarella wrap this morning. Both were better than imagined. I am so happy they chose to open in Kingsbridge. We can not wait to go back for dinner. read more

Went here with my parents, who've been suggesting this place for months. I am glad we did! The parking situation is challenging, and the restaurant decor is minimal. But once the food arrives it's easy to forget all about those things! It was excellent - I had the smoked shrimp and grits, and tried a bit of everyone else's, and the food just kept getting better. While I was partial to my shrimp, I have to say that the chicharrones were a close second, nice and crispy and juicy, and the quesadilla was tasty as well. The kicker though was the tres leches cake, which is now my father's favorite sweet. At first, they thought they were out, but upon seeing the disappointment on my father's face, they found one last piece for him, and he was kind enough to let us try a bite - but just one small one each. And WOW! I can see why it's his favorite, and why he didn't want to share - it was phenomenal. I can't describe it well enough to do it justice --- you must try it yourself. The staff were all friendly and attentive, and the service was quick. If you're in the neighborhood, it's a definite must-try. You'll come back for more for sure! read more

Came here on a weeknight due to recommendations from friends. The shredded skirt steak with vegetable rice was delicious and so flavorful. My friend had the grilled chicken and quinoa dish which he enjoyed. We redeemed the free dessert for checking in on Yelp coupons. My friend enjoyed his carrot cake. I had the bread pudding with caramel sauce topped with strawberries. It was delicious! The lattes were great. Our waitress was so nice and friendly. The restaurant is small but clean and charming, with free parking out front. Prices are reasonable. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to our next visit! read more

The worst place if you want to order by phone they have no time or have you wait then pass you to another person because you mentioned they took to long like 15 minutes and really don't care if you order or not please save your self time order some place else. read more

Amaaaazing ! I came with my family who had already ate, & they ended up ending as well. The food here is bombbbb. If you come, you have to come with an empty stomach, the servings are huge. read more

Decided to try something different with the bro and glad I did. The food here is good and light weight. We started with ordered an Americano and Moca coffee. I ordered a bacon Blt omelette with waffles. My brother ordered a protein omelette with home fries. I also ordered an antioxidant drink and it was Delicious. For dessert my brother and I shared bread pudding and it was great! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and will definitely come back again. read more

My Wife & I just ate at Leche y Miel for the first time. I can see us coming back all the time. I had the Chicken n Waffles, she had the BBQ Pulled Pork w Mac n Cheese. We were picking food off of each other's plates it was so good. Highly recommend taking a visit here. You won't regret it. Since the original review above, I have been back 2 other times. The service is always friendly and attentive and the food is delicious every time. The hibiscus tea is my Favorite drink on the tea's menu. I'm a fan of the mofoguintos and the mac/cheese w Pulled pork. read more

Wow, what a gem in the neighborhood. Friendly owners, clean restaurant, clean restrooms, reasonable prices and freshly cooked food. Loved the open kitchen. This is a def a mom and pop shop. Both of them work there all the time, plus the son is in the back prepping. Great family restaurant, can't say enough good things about it. The only restaurant to go to when you're in this neighborhood. There's also limited parking spots in front of the restaurant. read more

Great food, large portions, friendly fast service. This is a super casual family restaurant with a wide range of prices. Decor is no frills; cooking goes on in sight of the tables.

Leche Y Miel Restaurant - Comfort Food Near Me - Bronx, New York

Nice place but quite funny; small situation regarding the "pork & macaroni/cheese which had paprika in it. The Chef shook my hands offered another dish. I declined the offer and when received the bill, I was still charged. Of course, I smiled and said nope, I'm not paying for a dish he walked away with. Lol that was hilarious So I calmly disputed - I would say the place is nice for a coffee chat and maybe I will try something else in the future but it's just nice- not a wow factor spot. Good for a run in like McDonald's- besides can't expect in a quick little spot and staff with nonchalant personalities - what makes a place interesting is personalities and coziness. They definitely need to have a nice "Spanish chill out lounge music" to spark it. Not regular music station like parking garage spot.. we want something soothing and welcoming! YouTube:: Spanish Nights (mixed by spring lady) promise you it will give it a taste of the atmosphere!! read more

I love this place. It is one of the best gems in this neighborhood and exactly what it needed. There are few places in this neighborhood that can give you a fresh gourmet meal and make you feel like you're being taken care of by someone's loving Dominican grandmother in the kitchen. The husband and wife who own this establishment clearly care about this venture and take the time to make you feel welcome and get to know you. I have been coming here often since they've opened and they never skip a beat. Their food is soooooo goooooood!!!! I have come for breakfast and lunch and they provide hearty Dominican classics as well as healthy meals with a twist. From their good old fashioned tres golpe to their French toast to their ribs and yuca fries. It is allllll good. Have not had a bad meal yet. You seriously cannot go wrong. Only tip I would give is to give yourself time to come here. This is not a fast food restaurant and your food is cooked fresh! This does take a normal amount of time so give yourself time if you are deciding to eat in. read more

The food was great, I had the chicken chucks and tostones and both were cooked to perfection. The ambiance was pretty relaxed and the service was good :) Do try the French toast if you come, they are out of this world!!! read more
